Vehicle-Mounted Drone Defense: Mobile Protection for Convoys and Temporary Sites
Most counter-drone systems are designed to sit in one place and protect a fixed perimeter. That works for airports, stadiums, prisons, and power plants. It does not work for anything that moves. A VIP convoy is driving between two cities. A temporary command post set up at a disaster response site. A mobile inspection team … Continue reading Vehicle-Mounted Drone Defense: Mobile Protection for Convoys and Temporary Sites
Standalone Systems vs. OEM Modules: An Integrator’s Guide to Drone Defense
A system integrator adding drone defense to a security platform faces a real fork in the road. One path is to pick a ready-made piece of hardware, plug it in, and hand the end user the controls. The other is to pull the detection engine out of that hardware, embed it inside the integrator’s own … Continue reading Standalone Systems vs. OEM Modules: An Integrator’s Guide to Drone Defense
Stadium Drone Security: Detection, Identification, and Mitigation for Major Sporting Events
Every summer, the global sporting calendar puts tens of thousands of people in outdoor stadiums. The Olympic Games, the Premier League, the MLB season, the UEFA European tournaments. For security directors at these venues, the checklist is long. Crowd management, access control, perimeter monitoring. One item that used to be near the bottom has been … Continue reading Stadium Drone Security: Detection, Identification, and Mitigation for Major Sporting Events
Motorola Acquires D-Fend for $1.5 Billion: What Platform Giants Entering Counter-Drone Means for System Integrators
In June 2026, Motorola Solutions announced the acquisition of D-Fend Solutions, an Israeli counter-drone technology company, for approximately 1.5 billion dollars. The deal closed within weeks, and by July, Motorola had already begun integrating D-Fend’s EnforceAir radio-frequency takeover technology into its broader public safety and security portfolio. This acquisition matters for reasons that go beyond … Continue reading Motorola Acquires D-Fend for $1.5 Billion: What Platform Giants Entering Counter-Drone Means for System Integrators
How RF Direction Finding Works: From Angle-of-Arrival to Networked TDOA Positioning
If you set up a drone detection system that listens but never transmits, you are using radio frequency direction finding. The concept is simple in principle and subtle in practice. A drone talks to its remote controller. That conversation uses radio waves. A passive sensor tuned to the right frequency bands picks up the conversation, … Continue reading How RF Direction Finding Works: From Angle-of-Arrival to Networked TDOA Positioning
Airborne Drone Detection Is Here: Why Multi-Layer Defense Is Becoming the Standard
At Eurosatory 2026 in Paris, one product demo got more than the usual share of attention from counter-drone professionals: an RF detection payload mounted on a quadcopter, flying above the exhibition grounds and feeding live drone positions to a ground station. The product is the Hawk T1 from Aaronia, and it represents something that has … Continue reading Airborne Drone Detection Is Here: Why Multi-Layer Defense Is Becoming the Standard
Four Signals the Counter-Drone Market Is Entering a Procurement Phase in 2026
For years, the counter-drone industry has been described as emerging, growing, and on the verge of a breakout. Those descriptions were accurate for a market where most activity consisted of pilot programs, trial deployments, and small-scale procurements by early-adopter government agencies. In 2026, the evidence suggests the market is no longer emerging. It is accelerating … Continue reading Four Signals the Counter-Drone Market Is Entering a Procurement Phase in 2026
How to Choose Portable Drone Detection Equipment: A Practical Guide to H3 Pro and HD5
When a security team needs to find a drone that just appeared over their facility, they care about two things: where exactly the drone is, and who is flying it. A compass bearing that points toward the general direction of the signal is not enough. In a dense urban environment or a sprawling industrial site, … Continue reading How to Choose Portable Drone Detection Equipment: A Practical Guide to H3 Pro and HD5
Echodyne’s 30,000-Unit Radar Factory Signals Mass Demand for Counter-Drone Radar – Where TR100 Fits
In mid-2026, radar manufacturer Echodyne opened a new production facility with an annual capacity exceeding 30,000 MESA radar units. It is a significant signal for anyone watching the counter-drone industry: the demand for small-target detection radar is no longer experimental or niche. It is moving into volume manufacturing. A factory producing 30,000 radar units per … Continue reading Echodyne’s 30,000-Unit Radar Factory Signals Mass Demand for Counter-Drone Radar – Where TR100 Fits
Why Belgium’s Drone Violation Wave Rewrites the Rulebook for Event Airspace Security
The Belgian Directorate General of Aviation, DGLV, published a warning ahead of the summer 2026 event season that reads like a checklist of what European counter-drone regulation is about to become. In 2025 alone, Belgian authorities investigated dozens of drone violations. Not isolated hobbyist incidents. Patterned, high-risk offenses concentrated around the country’s highest-profile events. Rock … Continue reading Why Belgium’s Drone Violation Wave Rewrites the Rulebook for Event Airspace Security
